Professional Equipment for charlbury wedding hire
Charlbury sits on the edge of the Wychwood Forest, providing a rural backdrop for large celebrations. We deliver to this area regularly, supplying equipment for everything from 150-guest sit-down meals to relaxed drinks receptions. Organisers setting up barn weddings frequently select the Cross Back chair in oak. This seating option fits natural, rustic environments. Formal affairs often require the Chiavari chair. Black frames suit sharp sophistication, white frames create a fresh aesthetic for traditional marquees, and limewash frames add warmth to country house settings. Modern, sculptural setups benefit from the Wishbone chair, which creates strong visual lines for event photography. You can browse our complete chair hire inventory online to find the exact match for your venue.
Table selection depends on your dining format. Sit-down meals typically utilise 6ft circular tables, seating ten guests comfortably. Feasting layouts require 8ft trestle tables arranged in long rows. Dedicated bar areas need poseur tables and bar furniture to give guests a place to rest drinks while mingling. We supply all these options through our table hire category. We designed our exclusive EventPro® range specifically for the hire trade to withstand heavy use at large gatherings. Corporate event teams from organisations like the BBC, ITV, and HSBC trust our commercial grade inventory for their large-scale productions, and we bring that same standard to private celebrations.
Tableware and Catering Gear
Fabric choices define the dining space. We stock tablecloths to fit all our tables, alongside matching napkins and chair covers. You can view our full linen hire collection to coordinate colours with your floral arrangements. External caterers require specific tools to execute a menu. We supply cooking equipment, fridges for chilling beverages, and warming equipment like bain-maries to hold food at safe temperatures. Independent bar operators can source bar equipment and essential bar accessories directly from our site.
Dining service requires substantial quantities of crockery, cutlery, and glassware. We stock everything from wine glasses to champagne flutes. Expo Hire includes a "Send It Back Dirty" service on all these items. Your catering team packs the unwashed plates and glasses back into their crates after the meal, and we handle the cleaning at our depot. Every order also includes a free minor damage waiver, covering accidental chips or scratches during your event. No other UK hire company includes this as standard.
Outdoor Setups and Logistics
Oxfordshire celebrations frequently incorporate outdoor spaces. Reception areas and chill-out zones benefit from our outdoor furniture. Cooler evenings require Patio heaters to keep guests comfortable as temperatures drop. Drinks stations and live bands often need shelter, which you can arrange through our gazebo hire section. You can book all these items through our broader furniture hire inventory 24/7 without a phone call.
We operate 11 regional depots across the country, delivering commercial equipment to various local venues. Our logistics network handles deliveries to:
- Lee Place: A country house hosting formal events and large gatherings.
- Cornbury Park: A significant estate requiring substantial amounts of equipment for festivals and corporate functions.
- Local village halls: Venues like Charlbury Memorial Hall, Finstock Village Hall, and Stonesfield Village Hall host smaller, intimate celebrations.
